My favorite fact about this movie is that the writer wanted to do a bolivian army ending (kill all the protagonists) but thought Disney would never let him do it. So his first draft had Jyn and Cassian finding a ship and escaping. Disney came back with “It’s great, but shouldn’t Jyn and Cassian die in the end?” He’s just like, “… 👍 You got it!”

This is, IMO, the best Star Wars right after Empire Strikes Back. Definitely the most visually gorgeous (I sincerely hope the only reason Greig Fraser didn't get an Oscar nom for his masterful cinematography is because he was nominated for another film that year) and emotionally hard-hitting one -- I'm a life-long SW fan but the only other Star Wars stories I can think of in the same category are in the realm of video games: Knights of the Old Republic II and Jedi: Fallen Order. Also 'Your Father Would Be Proud' on the soundtrack... instant waterworks every time.

I'm old enough to have seen Episode IV back in 1977, when it was a little ol' movie called "Star Wars." What I love about "Rogue One" all these years later is how all the details are filled in, of the people whose story deserves to be told and yet never lands on the front pages. After all, the Star Wars saga is complete and satisfying without "Rogue One." So, what gives? This movie reminds us it's all too easy to forget history is written on the back of so much sacrifice, and the story of those sacrifices is worth the telling. People die believing in the cause, unsure their cause will ever come out winning. To me, that is the compounded tragedy; these deaths are deeply sad, but to not know if your death amounts to anything is the further tragedy. This film reminds us how ennobling it is to simply do the right thing, even at the gravest cost. For instance, consider all the Allied soldiers who died on D-Day, June 6, 1944. Within a year, of course, the Allies has won WWII. I grieve their deaths and I think about them every Memorial Day and June 6. But I also grieve that they never got to know that their deaths amounted to defeating a genuine evil in the world; they died not knowing their sacrifice helped win the war. I love "Rogue 1" because it celebrates the spirit of those fallen - those nameless, countless heroes whose story tends to not be told. It is so suitable that the last line in this movie is "hope," because it is what those fallen rebels would have wanted: they died to carry hope forward.

They took their name from the group known as Rogue One who made the impossible, possible (and seeing how Rogue Group comprised of survivors of the first Death Star battle and the Battle of Hoth, it seemed fitting. There will be a upcoming movie directed by Patty Jenkins called "Rogue Squadron" and in the pre-disney Era Rogue Squadron under Commander Wedge Antilles made a name for themselves in the books for being the top Rebel fighter squadron.

My step-daughter was working for Lucasfilm (on a top secret project that I think was figuring out tech needed for Mandalorian) when this movie was screened to the employees of Lucasfilm. Apparently they introduced it with the introductory crawl from a New Hope, and when it go to the part about a small team stealing the plans it froze there and said "This is their story." I wish they had kept that in the final cut of the movie but probably didn't feel it was an appropriate way to start what is essentially a dark movie. But this is definitely my favorite Star Wars movies. PS: LOVE the tapestry (if that is what it is) of Middle Earth in the background. Where did you get it? My brother and I once had a poster of the original map of Middle Earth from the books. Wish I had salvaged that when he died.

I honestly think it was best this way, because then we the audience do not know for sure if they'll succeed in anything. For all we know, they might all die *and* fail to send the message, so by the end even though they all die we still think "At least we know they didn't die for nothing." because we know how much having that information helped the rebels. But I knew for sure e they would succeed on that, I would only be sad by the end of the movie seeing all of them die and not achieve anything beyond what I was expecting them to.

Oh, and some background: Galen and Krennic were old college buddies and ambitious charismatic Krennic was sort of obsessed with the introverted genius Galen and roped him into his various machinations. Lyra, Jyn's mother, was a geologist researching kyber crystals and a faithful of the Force (and an ex-Jedi in an earlier script draft). Chirrut and Baze were both Guardians of the Whills, holy guardians of the Kyber Temple, but Baze lost his faith when the Empire occupied Jedha and pillaged the temple. Chirrut's demise clearly made him regain some of it. 😪 As for Cassian, his story will be told soon in the form of a Disney+ series 'Andor'.

They were talking about the entire cast of this film dying to get the Death Star plans out to Princess Leia. I always wondered who that was, this Episode answered that for me. Notice too, that Red 5 X-Wing pilot dies trying to take down the shield in this one... Luke is assigned the Red 5 call sign in A New Hope (that's my favorite reference in this one).

@@wollysammoth, you're absolutely right in that this leads directly into the opening of Episode IV. In fact I remember going home after seeing this in the theater and having to re-watch A New Hope for the thousandth time just to view it through the lens of Rogue One. The first thing I noticed is that at the beginning of the film Darth Vader is PISSED. He really isn't anything but coldly competent or dangerously ironic throughout the remainder of the trilogy, up until the duel in front of the Emperor in The Return of the Jedi. The writers of Rogue One took a single portion of the opening crawl of the first film and turned it into quite possibly the 2nd best Star Wars Movie ever made, in my opinion (Behind only The Empire Strikes Back) The line you are thinking of was spoken by Mon Mothma when the Rebels were getting briefed on the second Death Star in Return of the Jedi. The information that the Rebels managed to obtain from the Bothan spies was the location of the second Death Star, and the fact that the Emperor would actually be going there and when. Many Bothans died to obtain that information. ;-) It's a common mistake. No worries.

Without a doubt the best modern Star Wars film that evokes the same feelings as the original trilogy.

Amazing reaction! but it's crazy to me how people criticize Tarkin's CGI. To me it is EXTREMELY impressive and I get zero uncanny valley from it. There are sooo many worse CGI recreations out there.

Guys you've got to watch Andor now if you haven't yet, it's written by Tony Gilroy who co-wrote this movie & stars Diego Luna among others from this movie.

28:20 - The irony of Krennic's own creation being what killed him is only part of what is being conveyed here. What is really being driven home is how fast a bootlicker will be discarded when there is no further use of them. Same in episode III when Darth Vader killed the separatist leaders.

Rogue One is my personal favorite Star Wars outside of the original trilogy. I thought the writing and acting were both top notch and seeing believable CGI characters (rather than the atrocities that were added to the original trilogy) was fun. I'm with George, I got a huge crush on Felicity Jones when seeing this in theaters.

Time between Episode 3 and Episode 4 = Luke's age. There are more exact answers, but for the casual viewer, that's all you really need.

This movie is right up there with the original trilogy for me. It's sad Disney can't realistcally do the upcoming movies with Jyn instead of Rey as the main character. She is so much better written!

I still don't know which line is the most repeated one in Star Wars. "I have a bad feeling about this"? "May the force be with you"? Or "I'm one with the force and the force is with me"?

The Rogue One story happens just about 19 years after Revenge Of The Sith. It's the story of the spies who procured the Death Star to the Rebellion. By the way, George Lucas has said the the last scene with Carrie Fisher was actually a scene that was shot for episode IV A New Hope and was enhanced digitally for this scene to give the viewer a true continuation to the story.

2 things, i think this is the first Disney Cannon apperance of Kyber Crystals, At least in finished edited movies. IIrc. kyber crystals wasnt shown in movies until 2016, and the Sith Red lightsaber wasnt shown to be "Bleeded" until 2018 as well as Death Troopers. who DT where tha main villan with Kyle Katarn Triolgy of games. he couldnt kill the empowere. but random supoer OP Advanced SS troops is easy Hard Villans.

this year or within the "Season" of TV shows, Like rebels and S7 of Clone wars shoed horned Kyber Crystals, but atm Rouge 1 was the first disney show 2 show what kyber crystals are. offically, as the 2005 battlefront 2 game, 3 years before disney bought lucas fims for $Billion$. the OG bF 2 game comfirmed in legends that the Republic Invaded MAGETTO for that RACE "Owned" the Banks like the "JEWS" doo on earth. as well at that was the HOME planet of SIDOUS SITH MASTER, but for them to NAtionlise the banking planet and take it over like illum becase the kyber crystals for the death star mega laser

I don’t know who made this movie but I do know he didn’t make any of the other SW movies but they should never use JJ Abrams again and should have let this person make all SW content because he gets it. He gets this franchise and what the fans want because they Darth Vader scene at the end was absolutely stunning and beyond bad ass.

The only falling is a great ending it also rewrites the original Star Wars Radio Play, which had a completely different plot for Leia getting the plans from the Rebel spies.
